Security bypass vulnerability in cryptsetup in DebianID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:38097 | Date: (C)2016-11-17 (M)2023-12-20 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: unix |
The host is installed with cryptsetup before 2:1.6.6-5 on Debian 8 or before 2:1.4.3-4 on Debian 7 and is prone to security bypass vulnerability. A flaw is present in scripts, which unlock the system partition when the partition is ciphered using LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup). Successful exploitation could allow remote attackers to obtain a root initramfs shell on affected systems.
